them to, and in one instance killed one
of the crew. The neutrality of our ports
was grossly violated with impunity. In
1904 Capt. Bradley, Of the British frigate
Cambriau, entered the harbor of New
York, seized merchant 7essels-just
arrived-aud carried off and impressed
number of the seamen and passengers,
setting at defiance the civil authorities.
In 1906 the French ship Imperieu1, of
seventy. four guns, when aground on the
shore of North Carolina, was Tired on,
boarded, and burned by three British
ships of war, in violation of our sover-
eighty and neutrality. At the same time
Norfolk was actually blockaded by an
English frigate, under the notorious Capt.
Douglas, who obstructed our citizens from
ordinary communication with neighbor-
ing places, and boasted of the i. press
ment of American seamen.
These insults and outrages finally
eliminated in June, 1907, by the audacious
attack of the British ship of War Leopard
on the American frigate Chesapeake,
which was fred into without warnir
killing several of her crew, besides iorci.

THE RATE WAR OVER WITH.

Southern Freight Rates Readjusted
and to be Restored Nov. /.
The Southern Railway and Steamship AS
ISOLATION met in New York last week to con-
slider the restoration and readjustment of
freight rates to the Southeast, which, on ac-
count of the recent action of the Clyde Line
Steamship Company coastwise, has been in
an extremely demoraliZed condition. In
the universal cutting of rates that grew out
of this decentralization, first-class rates that
were 65c. per 100 pounds on the schedule
were cut down to 25c., and everything else
in proportion. The association agreed upon
a common basis of both freight and steam
ship passenger rates for the coming season,
enacting a schedule, which goes into effect
Nov. l. Under it all minor differences were
adjusted, many of them only as the result of
a compromise, but concluding ultimately in
a restoration of rates to the former figures
Rules and regulations to which each road
subscribed were adopted, under which mu-
tual rates are pledged to be maintained and
only deviated from to meet fortuitous com
petition after the necessity or propriety
thereof shall first be communicated to the
association and passed upon by it. Arrange
ments were made for the submission of all
questions arising under the new schedule to
the general Eas tern agents of the roads rep
resented in case the question is one regard
ing freight or passenger rates southwark,
and to the representatives of the roads in
the South if the question relates to north
ward business.

A RARE OPPORTUNITY.

A Physician Who Makes No Charge
Blood and Skin Diseases Treated
No Charge Made for Consultation,
Examination and Prescription-Let-
terS From a Distance Answered, and
Advice Given Free of Charge.
Dr. w. II. Whitehead, the well-known
Specialist on Blood and Skin Diseases, has
returned to Savannah and reopened his
Office. DIR. Whitehead has been making an
extended trip through the cities of the
Southwest, for the purpose of introducing
his celebrated Blood Purifier, the Prickly
Ash, Poke Root and Potassium compound,
with remarkable success. In New Orleans
alone, over 5000 bottles were used during
his stay in that city, and hundreds of re
markable cures made, where all other rene
dies and treatments had failed. DIR. White
head offers to treat all who will apply to
him for the next sixty days
FREE OF CHARGE.
The object Dr. Whitehead has in making
this extraordinary offer, is that he knows
his remedy will cure this class of troubles,
and one person cured in town is better
advertisement than columns of newspaper
and almanac certificates from unknown
people.
If you have Rheumatism, Scrofula, Syph-
Ills, Old Sores, Skin Eruptions, MalariaI
Poison or any condition requiring power
full Tonic and Blood Purifier, come and see
the doctor, and he will give your case a
careful examination and prescribe for you
such remedies as he thinks necessary, in
addition to his Blood Purifier.
DR.. Whitehead has made this class of
troubles a special study for years, and has
many valuable remedies for the local treat
ment of Old Sores, Ulcers, Skin Eruptions,
etc, which he uses in connection with his
great Blood Purifier.

In the communication in Sundays issue,
signed bay Street. relative to purchasing
the entire Barracks lot for public build
ing site, there are two small errors which
might cause a misapprehension of the mean
ing of the writer of it. The errors occur in
the following paragraph Our Represen-
tative in Congress would be in better con
dition to urge an increased appropriation
with such a refusal of the propel ty on file
than he would be if the price was an open
question, which might lead to suspension
of job to relieve the Treasury of part
of its surplus The word condition"
should be position, and the suspension"
should be suspicion.

TO CIRCLE THE CITY.
The New Street Car Line-What Presi-
dent Smart Says About 1t.

dent Smart Says About IL.
An advertisement in the MORNING NEWS
giving notice that the new street railroad
with the long name, Savannah Street and
Rural Resort Railroad Company, would
apply for certain streets in addition to those
recently granted them by City Council, at
tracted considerable attention and favorable
comment yesterday The route is one over
which a street railway is much needed. In
a conversation with H. p. Smart, Esq, the
President and General Manager of the new
company, he stated that the work of build
ing the road will commence as soon as the
iron arrives, probably in a week or two,
and he expected to have cars running over
the road by Jan. |.
The route is from the Ocean Steamship
through West Broad, Liberty, Montgomery,
Seventh and Habersham streets to Bolton
streets, and from West Broad through Bay
to East Broad. Should the Council grant
the additional streets the road will be eX
tended through East Broad, President,
Randolph, Liberty, East Broad streets to
Bolton street. The line will not only afford
much needed connection between the bust
hess part of the city and the wharves, cot
ton presses and railroad depots, but it will
be an important factor in building up the
city. Mr. Smart says that the company
has ample capital to build and equip
the entire line as projected, and to do it
quickly. All that is asked is that the city
authorities give the right to the streets, and
the company will have all that part of the
railroad north of Anderson street finished
long before tho limit fl xed by the resolution
granting the privilege.
The building Of the road will undoubtedly
have a very marked effect on the future
growth of the city. The line will cover
five and half miles of streets, and the esti-
mated cost of the road, thoroughly
equipped, is $l00,000.

cause of the assault was a denial by Mr..
Moroso of a statement made at meeting
of the Young Mems Democratic Club OF
Charleston, that elghty-fve votes were cast
for President, while in fact there were only
seventy-two persons present. Mr.. Moroso
did not then know at the time who was the
author of the statement, but he afterward
learned. Sunday morning, while he was
getting in a barber chair, the party, accom-
panied by two companions, walked up and
began abusing him. Mr.. Moroso attempted
to get out of the chair and was knocked
